How to write a book

I talked about writing a novel for a long, long time before I had time to write a real book. I must have been three or four years, saying "I want to write a book" or "I should write a book" before I realized a serious word.write book But first you have to make a plan.

Meanwhile, I kept journals, wrote stories, essays - mostly, I wrote everything I could finish in a day or a month. I avoided anything that can make a real discipline and commitment. Since writing my novel. I had dreams of being discovered. I was not very interested in being a famous writer. I just knew I wanted to write a book. I did not even know what was going to be write book.



I also read a lot of books on writing. He repeatedly said the research was the important thing. Technical importance. I was not too ... ... ready ... but I once read a book on writing, appears after.

Things came to a head. I was too young to have a midlife crisis, but for some personal reasons, I promised myself to stop procrastinating. Not going to waste time talking about things I wanted to do. I was about to make. There would be no better validation of new reality I start and finish my book. It would be a symbol of triumph, or to prove that he had not changed at all.

Long story short, I spent the next three years to write this book. I self-published a zero fanfare and little success beyond my own satisfaction. And it was very good.

Write book Here is how I did it, that's not going to blow your mind at all: every day, I wrote something. I do not want to a number of words, but I wrote something every day and do not change it back until you have a project together. The more words I wrote, the farthest I've ever had. Paragraphs soon became pages, and so on until you have a huge pile of papers on my desk. I had done.

I spent two of the three years rewriting the book. It was beside the lake ct is the most enjoyable part of the process for me, which was a big surprise write book .

So if you want to write a book, I have some advice for you. Not like a famous author, as a guy who finally figured out how to do it: just to start and write something every day. Stop reading writing and just write. Do not worry about the quality. Just keep writing or typing fingers with any tool you use write book.

Do not say anything except actually writing is writing. There will be a time for research and review. If the words do not appear on the page, it is not written. Make sure your mantra, even if it is catchy
